bottle help

my little one will be 3mo friday she is breastfed but i have tried a bottle every so often and she takes maybe 1/2 oz. im back at work now and mom in law says she wont eat much she may or may not eat even an ounce!! tips for getting her to bottle it some?

with my daughter, i had to find a certain type of nipple that she would use for the bottle. i had to stop breastfeeding at 2 weeks, because she wasn't satisfied, she used it as comfort it just wasn't enough. she took the nuk bottle perfectly, i guess because it was wider than the regular nipples for bottles.

ive tried 4 types of nipples and several different bottles. she isnt particularly fond of any of them. i tried a beginner sippy cup the other day and she took that a little better. i had to do that with my first one cause she wouldnt bottle feed either. so of course i go to work paranoid that she isnt eating and that she's starving and of course as soon as i walk in the house she knows and lets me know what she wants!!

Yep, the nipple makes all the difference. I tried at least 5 different nipples before my DD decided she liked the good ol' Playtex nurser nipples.. Go figure. After trying Avent, Dr. Browns, etc..she didn't like any of those.
